Background

Liskeard Town Council has decided that it wants to create the first Liskeard Neighbourhood Plan, and has successfully applied to Cornwall Council to designate the parish of Liskeard as a Neighbourhood Area.

The Neighbourhood Plan for Liskeard is for local people to say where housing should go, where jobs get created, shopping is developed and play spaces increased. It’s this community’s chance to make these important decisions locally.

Local volunteers have been busy putting together a draft plan incorporating your community ideas, which takes Liskeard through to 2030.

Eventually, all Liskeard residents on the electoral roll will get the chance to vote for the Plan in a local referendum.

The project has been driven by community volunteers, supported by the Town Council, and when approved, it is ‘Made’ in law and must be taken into account when planning applications are considered, therefore shaping our town until 2030.
